The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 221 - Eric Vs Miyamoto 1
As soon as I entered the capsule that had been provided by the event organizer, I arrived at this virtual world.
Now what was in front of me, was a fairly neutral battleground.
In the middle of this not-so-dense forest, it appears that all the leaves have been yellow to orange. Most of the leaves appear to fall so beautifully, creating an atmosphere that is so fitting with the figure of a Samurai.
Even I was suspicious.
"Is this battleground really randomly determined?" I told myself.
It was then that I saw Miyamoto's true figure. A figure admired as one of the best swordsmen in this virtual world.
In fact some information provided by Lisa states that Miyamoto is actually the Oldest Son of a famous Dojo in Japan.
Therefore, in the real world he was also a real Samurai.
"Damn it.... Where did he get such cool gear?" I said in an annoyed tone after seeing Miyamoto's equipment.
His entire body was covered by a Domaru, or more simply referred to as the typical armor of a Samurai. Miyamoto iyu's Domaru color is so beautiful with a dominating black color but decorated with golden patterns.
While on his left waist, a Katana appears with a total length of 1.12 meters.
Honestly, his current appearance really intimidated me.
At a time when I was still busy with my own thoughts, Miyamoto seemed to pull Katana from her scabbard and spoke.
"I acknowledge your ability, Eric. Therefore, I hope you can survive more than three of my slashes." Miyamoto said with his eyes closed. His long, black hair seemed to move around here and there because of the wind.
I did not respond to his words at all, but rather by preparing myself to use the [Future Sight] skill to predict his movements.
At that moment, I continued to focus while listening to the sound of the system that was loud enough.
"Three.... Two.... One.... Go!"
'Zraaatts!'
Miyamoto appears to be darting very quickly while holding Katana with both hands. His movements were the perfect suggestion to give an extremely deadly slash.
Although this world was a virtual world, martial arts in the real world also had an influence in this virtual world.
For example, an expert archer who does not even need the skills of the system to aim. The same is true of Miyamoto's current movements.
But at the same time, I have activated the [Future Sight] skill.
Now before me....
'Wait 'wait! What the fuck?!'
In general, I saw one to three shadows of the opponent's movements while looking at the future with the help of this skill. Surely that shadow is what 'may' happen based on the predictions of the Genesis Supercomputer.
While the shadow that has the greatest chance of happening, it will appear thicker and more real. Meanwhile, the other shadows will appear slightly blurry.
But what I see now....
There are 9 shadows. In other words, Miyamoto's movements were capable of producing nine very different types of attacks from the same starting point.
Being too busy thinking, I forgot the most important thing about using this [Future Sight] skill was taking action.
"Damn it!" I yelled annoyed at the slight panic and immediately put up the Crystal Shield at some point.
At that very instant, Miyamoto had been right before me and swung his Katana at a speed that surpassed my imagination.
'Zraaat! Zraaatts! Zraaat!!'
'Pyaaarr! Pyaarr! Oh!!'klaangg!!!'
A total of three slashes were successfully launched by Miyamoto.
The sound that resembled the breaking of the glass sounded so loud with every slash that it launched.
At that very instant, my instinct shouted out loudly.
'RUN!'
Not without reason. But the system notification that was in front of me had explained everything.
[Crystal Shield has received 1,035,982 damage!]
[Crystal Shield has been destroyed!]
[Crystal Shield has received 1,102,560 damage!]
[Crystal Shield has been destroyed!]
[Crystal Shield has received 874,139 damage!]
[Health Point Crystal Shield now has 149,135 HP remaining]
Without waiting any longer, I immediately jumped back to get away from Miyamoto.
It was once thought to use the [Fly] skill but I immediately undo the intention. The reason is, just before the activation of the [Fly] skill I had to keep quiet for about 1 to 2 seconds.
A short time. However, the magic circle as well as the greenish light that enveloped my body with thinness would be immediately visible at that moment.
Not only that, to activate the [Fly] skill and control its movements required a fairly high concentration.
But without my guess....
"Three slashes just now should have been able to cut your body into pieces. But being able to hold it with that glass shield.... I adore you, Eric." Miyamoto said as he immediately sheathed back his sword.
'What did he do?! Putting out his weapon in the middle of the fight?! Is he crazy?!' I screamed in confusion in my heart.
But to receive respect in the middle of this fight, of course I can't keep quiet.
"You're also terrible. I didn't expect to be able to break through my Crystal Shield like that. But did you know? I just started warming up!" I shouted with a big smile and a sharp look.
There was a faint smile on Miyamoto's face after hearing my words.
'In the end.... I found a worthy opponent!'
The fight happened again.
Miyamoto immediately shot back towards me at a speed far beyond his first jump.
However, now his Katana is still in the sheath. I didn't take the dizzy and immediately reused my Crystal Shield skill.
[Crystal Shield]
[Rarity : Legendary]
[Mana Cost: Depends on usage level]
[Cooldown: 0]
Effect
Creating a translucent crystal shield with Durability or Health Point of 0.025% Magic Power X Mana Point used.
That's why I said that before was just a warm-up.
That was because from the start, I only used 20,000 Mana Points for every Crystal Shield I made!
That was why the end result had an HP of around 1 million.
When compared to the total number of Mana Points I currently have which is 4,000,000 more, then the number 20,000 is a small number!
Even I have Mana Point Regeneration which reaches 1,300 MP per second!
And now....
In front of Miyamoto who seemed so serious....
I also showed my determination.
"Crystal Shield!!!"
At the same time....
"The Hidden Sword Technique! Mountain Splitters!"
Miyamoto pulled Katana from her scabbard very quickly after getting close enough to me.
He swung his katana horizontally at an incredible speed that could not even be followed by the [Future Sight] skill that I had always used.
Hence....
I used my 300,000 Mana Points to create a large crystal shield before me.
When Miyamoto's Katana collided with the shield, there was a strong wind and even flattened all the trees in the forest.
'Wuuuooosshhh!!!'
Not only that, the ground where Miyamoto and I stood was also crushed by such a strong pressure.
Now, the entire screen that is being watched by many people around the world is filled with wind, dust, leaves and trees that are destroyed.
As soon as a moment passed, Miyamoto was still standing firmly while holding Katana with his right hand.
Simultaneously, a notification that would shock the entire world had been clearly seen.
[Player: Miyamoto has dealt 8,421,854 damage!]
The notification is displayed on the audience screen on the bottom right corner side which of course can be disabled by the audience if you want.
Who would refuse to see that information?
Even so, it was not the sword slash that was able to flatten the entire forest that left all the spectators shocked and excited.
But it's because....
The figure in front of Miyamoto, Eric, was still standing quietly with a satisfied smile. Never mind losing, his whole body is still intact and looks so healthy.
"It seems I made this shield a little too strong for you huh, Miyamoto?"
Despite speaking such a cool pretentious talk, to be honest the conditions inside my heart are opposite.
'Damn it! What kind of crazy damage was that just now?! It was fortunate that I placed the shield right at the direction of his slash!' I screamed panic in my heart.
